Скачать или смотреть High-Speed vs. Low-Speed Spinning Reels (Which Should You Use?)

One important, but often underlooked, aspects of a fishing reel is the gear ratio and how fast it is.

The speed of a reel should match the type of fishing you're doing, and if it's unmatched (or you're unaware of the speed), then it could be costly.

For example, if you're throwing a paddletail and using a high-speed reel that you're not used to, but are cranking the handle at the same cadence that you would with a slower reel, you might actually be retrieving your lure way too fast, which could cause you to not get any strikes.

That's just one example — there are several other things to keep in mind when fishing low vs. high-speed reels, and we'll cover those applications, as well as the advantages and disadvantages of each in this video.
